Program

Curriculum

These five principles are part of the Yandara teacher training system that will assist you to become the yoga teacher you want to be.

1. Teaching confidence

You will start to practice teaching on the second day and teach daily throughout the training. The institute has found that while it is of importance, gathering information about, or even experiencing yoga is not enough to learn how to impart the wisdom of the ancient practice. Through teaching and receiving immediate personal feedback, you will become more confident. Confidence allows you to relax and let your gifts come through.

2. Inner alignment and hands-on assists

At Yandara, proper alignment is valued as an important tool to a sustainable practice. That being said, what is the "proper alignment" for each individual? So many of the different yoga styles sometimes teach conflicting opinions, even about the very basic poses and how to practice them.

Yandara has some options, they can become fanatical about their "style" being the only way or they can go on a quest for the latest in corrections and cues. A third option is offered as well as basic alignment and cuing principles; you will be taught how to cultivate and decipher the language of the body.

You will learn to guide your students to be aware of what their sensations are telling them and how to move safely in the pose. Your inner ears will be trained to hear the quiet voice of the inner guru, the one who is present in your every breath and always ready to align you to you.

To practice with the support of inner alignment allows you to stay in your safety, even while challenging yourself with more advanced asanas. On the same basis, you will learn how to guide your students to find their inner alignment; both with the use of cues and with hands-on assists.

3. Cueing from your heart

At Yandara, you will learn to access cueing words from the heart instead of from brain memory. Cueing from your heart happens naturally through presence. To set the constantly thinking mind aside and let your heart shine through in your classes, cues will be give a unique and personal touch.

4. An open style and a set sequence

At Yandara, you will learn an open style of yoga which allows you to choose what and how you want to teach in the future. You will get all the tools you need to create a fun and challenging yoga class. To help you build your confidence, as a beginner teacher, one part of the teacher training also consists of learning a set sequence. That sequence is a tool you can choose to use in your future classes for as long as you like.

5. Compassion

An important part of the Yandara training is understanding and developing a caring, compassionate nature; this is a big part of unveiling the radiant teacher inside.
